Pandering on Tax Day

Scott Walker, gov wannabe, uses Tax Day, April 15, to say everything is on the table for budget cuts, including Medicaid, which provides health care for the poor, elderly and disabled. Great red meat for the right wing, who need to be reassured Walker has no compassion for anyone when it comes to talking tough about taxes.

Walker also proposed a five-point tax cut plan that included new exemptions and deductions. Funny thing, though: He said he had no idea how much they would cost.

One thing we know for sure: Talk is cheap. Story
